Undergraduate capstone collaboration

The undergraduate program for students in Industrial Engineering & Operations Research at UC Berkeley require them to execute a capstone project where they learn to identify, investigate, formulate, analyze, solve and implement a solution to a real problem in a manufacturing, service or governmental organization. Past student teams have studied retail trade, wholesale trade, manufacturing, distribution, transportation, marketing, and financial planning problems, among others. Organizations have ranged from small local companies and operations within the university to large international companies. To learn more about undergraduate captstone collaborations, contact Professor Candace Yano.

Sample projects

Graduate projects

Our graduate program is ranked #3 nationwide and top students from around the world come to Berkeley to study industrial engineering & operations research. Our Masters of Engineering students learn professional skills in leadership, management, and business while advancing their technical expertise in a concentrated area. Our Masters of Science and Ph.D students focus on increasing technical depth and research skill in a specific area of IEOR (data analytics, supply chain, logistics, etc.). By partnering with our graduate students, you will benefit from the latest knowledge in IEOR. If you are interested in graduate student collaboration, please contact Department Chair, Professor Phil Kaminsky.
